The revenge squad: SOS calls bring stolen pets home

October 11, 2026 · Update

Losing a pet hurts, especially a rare one you raised for days. Until now you had two ways to get it back: your own revenge raid, or a rescue link sent to friends. Since 11 October 2026 there is a third way. You can send an SOS call, and any player in the game can answer it.

Three ways to get a stolen pet back

A stolen pet stays "unsettled" in the thief's vault for 24 hours. During that time it can be taken back.

• Revenge. For 24 hours after a robbery you can raid the thief yourself. A revenge win pays +5 trophies on top of the normal win and +50% coins. Shields do not stop revenge.
• Rescue link. Share a link with friends. It stays open for 48 hours. A friend who wins the rescue raid sends your pet home.
• SOS call. New. Your call goes on a public board, and any active player can take the rescue raid.

How to send an SOS call

1. When you come back after a robbery, the robbery card shows what was taken. Tap SOS. You can also find the SOS button on that raid in your defense log.
2. The "SOS sent" sheet confirms the call. From there you can tap Ask friends too to send the same rescue link to your friends.
3. Wait. When someone brings the pet home, you get a notification, and a card on Home tells you who helped. You can send that player a friend request with one tap.

A call lasts 24 hours, or less if the rescue link's 48-hour window ends first. You can send up to 3 calls in any 24 hours, one per stolen pet.

How to answer a call

Open the Social tab. The SOS board shows up to five open calls, with thieves near your own trophy level first. Pick one and you start a rescue raid on the thief's vault. The stolen pet sits on a pedestal. Win the raid and the pet goes home to its owner. You never keep it.

The reward is the same as a rescue for a friend: 60 coins, +10 trophies and the hero badge, paid by the game. The thief's shield does not block a rescue raid. The board opens once you have finished the first training vault.

Fair-play rules

• You cannot answer your own call, or a call where you are the thief.
• A helper is rewarded once per victim per day, and for at most 3 SOS rescues per day. Past that, the pet still goes home, but the helper gets no reward.
• You cannot answer a call from the same device as the victim or the thief. An inviter and the friend they invited get no reward for rescuing each other.
• Sharing the call itself pays nothing. Only a won rescue raid does.

Fix on 12 October: rescues always count

Every vault has a daily cap of 3 lost pets. On launch day, one very busy thief hit that cap, and later rescue wins on their vault did not send the pets home. The fix on 12 October changes the rule: a rescue or a reclaim is never blocked by the thief's daily pet-loss cap. The cap still protects vault owners from normal raids.

The best defense is still a vault that thieves fail. Read the vault defense guide and the trap vault guide, and keep your rarest pets safe in the nest when you go away. More answers are in the tips and FAQ.
